‘Californication’ to End After Upcoming Seventh Season

“Californication” will be coming to a close at the end of season seven, Variety has confirmed. Comedy will return for its final season in April.

The David Duchovny-starrer, which debuted on the net in 2007, has accrued several Golden Globe and Emmy nominations, including a best actor Golden Globe win for Duchovny in 2008. Season six averaged 2.9 million weekly viewers across Showtime’s platforms after growing consistently throughout its run on the pay TV net.

“With its unique blend of lyricism and excess, ‘Californication’ has been one of our groundbreaking signature series,” said David Nevins, prez of entertainment at Showtime. “We will always be indebted to Tom Kapinos for leading the creative charge on this memorable comedy, and to David Duchovny for making us root for an unapologetic hedonist like Hank Moody. Tom has carefully planned the final chapter of Hank’s journey and has brought it to a beautiful and satisfying conclusion for new and long-time fans alike.”
